I have installed 'VMware-player-7.1.2-2780323' in Windows 7 with RAM 8 GB.

Unzip 'cloudera-quickstart-vm-5.4.2-0-vmware' file using 7zip.

open cloudera-quickstart-vm-5.4.2-0-vmware  files from VM Player.

Clicked on 'Play Virtual Machin'.

Nothing is coming on screen. so, no able to proceed.

Please help to fix the problem.

Hi Friends, I have successfully resolved issue related to not able to start Cloudera QuickStart VM with VM Player.

Follow below steps.

1] Check BIOS setting for enabled Virtualization.

2] Check logs ,It will explain you which steps to be taken. e.g. C:\Hadoop\Soft\cloudera-quickstart-vm-5.4.2-0-vmware\vmware.log

3] For me first its giving error on not able to find 'config.ini' file under user dir.I copied from C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware Workstation\config.ini into user dir. but issue not resolved

4] I found issue with CDH file which is corrupted. So I have downloaded new CDH. and replaced with old in VMware.

Now I am able to work on cloudera.Only thing is all me practice done for CCA175 data gone.
